Add Page Six on Google Cindy Crawford dubbed her son, Presley Gerber, a “warrior” amid his addiction battle, six months before his death.
The supermodel, 60, left the label on a March Instagram video her eldest child posted from a Cancún, Mexico, wellness clinic.
“You are a warrior!” she wrote at the time. “Walked thru the fire to find yourself! So proud! 🙏”
Crawford’s husband, Rande Gerber, similarly commented, “I’m so proud of you and your courage. Facing what’s hard takes real strength and watching you find your way back to yourself is everything. I love you so much.”
Meanwhile, the couple’s daughter, Kaia Gerber, penned that she was “so damn proud” of her brother.
At the time, Presley was telling his Instagram followers about his experience with the psychoactive ibogaine, which is found in the root bark of the West African shrub Tabernanthe iboga.
